"Hello, and welcome to the Decido system, the next step in next-gen decision making!
With Decido, making decisions has never been easier. With a single chip, the Decido System will relay the outcomes of all the choices you ponder everyday, simplifying the process and making it easy to make sure you make the best possible choice, all the time!"
"Thanks to the Decido System, you never have to wonder if you'll be late for the bus because you ate breakfast again. Using state-of-the-art technology, the chip relays that you've entered 'the decision-making process', to the Decido system, and cross references dozens of previous and current decisions related to your own, such as how fast the bus driver has decided to drive, in order to give you an accurate representation of your choices' outcomes."
"The Decido System is so much more than that, however. By registering decisions made into the system's database, we're able to stop crime before it happens, by immediately sending out law enforcement whenever someone decides to break the law, creating a virtually crime-free environment here in Trevance City. Civilians can be at ease knowing that the Decido System is there to protect them. In addition to this new system, the Decido Enforcement Control and Investigation Force (DECIF) was established to help keep you even safer."
"The new personal helper bot, Decio, is also available, giving further insight into the various decisions you make throughout your day, relaying useful information to help you make better choices."
"The Decido System: Making Better Decisions for a Better Future.
Happy Decision Making!"
Now that the fancy, commercial style introduction is out of the way, I'll get into the nitty, gritty explanation of the Decido System. It is, essentially, a large database of decisions that's added to whenever someone makes a decision. Whenever someone enters the decision-making process, the system relays information to the chip that uses information gathered from the decisions of others to to accurately portray choice outcomes.
For example, if someone decides to drug your drink, and you ponder whether or not to take a sip, the Decido System will relay to you that someone has made the decision to drug it, therefore protecting you from something that could prove to be dangerous. As in the example provided in the introduction, if you ever wonder if that extra piece of toast will make you late, the Decido System references the various decisions that have been made that would affect you're own, such as how fast the bus driver has decided to drive, how long it took someone to pay for their bus ticket, etc, and your personal helper bot, Decio, will give you the odds of such an occurrence, ex: "There is a 75% chance you will be late for the bus if you decide to have another piece of toast." The year, by the way, is 2112.
I should also mention that the Decido System is currently only set up in the experimental city of Trevance. As soon as people are of an age where they can make sound decisions, they are given two choices: they can be chipped, or they can be moved out of the city, all expenses paid. The chip is inserted painlessly into the back of the neck, where it is connected seamlessly to the part of the brain associated with decision making, the prefrontal cortex.
I've covered most of the basics, but I'd be more than happy to answer any questions anyone might have. I'd also like to mention that in this roleplay, you will have a choice to play as a DECIF worker, or as a civilian. There will eventually be conflict involved, even though it may be hard to see where such a conflict could exist. There are still many things about the Decido System that haven't been revealed to the public, which will be gradually divulged throughout the course of the roleplay.
So, any questions?
